Passions Uncovered

Chapter 1

It's the day of the wedding and everybody is getting ready. To be really honest with you, I've been a little jumpy today. Mainly because I keep thinking Bianca is going to prank somebody. Right now, I'm standing outside on the front porch, waiting for Angel to sneak back into the house. The idiot had to go back to the hotel we were staying at and get his wedding rings. Who forgets such important things like that? If Bianca were to find out about this, she would trip on him for real. Both Casey and Angel came running up onto the porch, out of breath. My brother was red in face with his lips set in a thin line.

"What's wrong with you guys?"

"Well, Sir. Idiot here lost their wedding rings" Casey snickered.

"Are you kidding me, how in the hell did you manage that Angel?" I asked Angel confused, he's not one to lose something that important. This could end up costing him his marriage.

"How the hell should I know? I thought they would be safe in the bedroom safe."

While we stood around talking and trying to solve Angel's current problem. A thought struck me. I glanced at and narrowed my eyes as an idea popped into my head. I stepped around my brother and Casey, making a beeline for Bianca's dressing room. They may not see each other before the wedding, but I know her like the back of my hand. Going over to Bianca's closed door, I pounded on it.

I heard faint giggling inside followed by all-out laughter, Bianca could be heard in the background telling everyone to be quiet.

"Open up you little witch" I yelled through the door at Bianca.

"What do you want Vince?"

"I know you're the one who took the Rings now hand them over before I strangle you."

"Now Vince, is this any way to talk to your best friend and future sister who you love and adore?"

"Bianca, come on, this is enough already. You have Angel outside stressing out and wanting to call off the wedding."

"Okay, Vince, tell Angel to look in the freezer."

I stood there staring dumbfounded at Bianca. Did she really put their wedding rings in the freezer? She certifiably checks crazy. At least Angel knows this already and still willing to marry Bianca. Go figure they both got a few screws loose no wonder they make such a great couple. I'm sort of interested in watching their new life together and all the chaos she will bring my brother.

"Fine, Bianca, let me go calm my brother down." As I turned to leave, I looked over my shoulder and told her, "Angel better tie you to the bed and blindfold you for days on end, then again knowing how you are. You would go for those 50 shades of gray stuff."

Knowing that my brother really didn't have time to go searching for the rings, his fiancée hid from him. I went and grabbed the rings for him instead. I swear someone needs to wring that girl's neck sometime. After grabbing the rings, I ran back to where my brother was and gave him the ring and he asked. "Vince, how did you find these?"

"Take one guess Angel" he looked at me, sighed, and shook his head grinning from ear to ear.

"Come on, guys, time to get Angel married," I said as both I and Casey grabbed a hold of Angel's arms, leading him out back to the preacher. Before long, the low hum of the song Love Like This started playing in the background as Bianca dressed a white stain off the shoulder wedding dress walked down the aisle on the arm of her grandfather Brian. There wasn't a dry eye in the crowd watching my brother and my best friend finally exchange their vows. Any moron witnessing this could see just how much these two loved each other. Tears trailed down my face as I pictured my parents in heaven smiling down at us. And my mom pounding my dad on the back, screaming in his ears. I told you, it would happen. Bianca will be my daughter now and forever.
